Abstract
Description
Este artículo analiza el modelo de catolicismo social puesto en práctica en la diócesis de Paraná,
particularmente durante el obispado de Abel Bazán y Bustos (1910-1926). Por un lado, se
aborda la problemática de la “cuestión social” desde algunos escritos del obispo e iniciativas,
tanto a nivel diocesano como parroquial. Por el otro, un acercamiento a la dinámica parroquial
de la ciudad de Nogoyá permite observar tanto la problemática de la “cuestión social” como el
accionar del catolicismo a partir de una de sus organizaciones, los Círculos Obreros. A modo de
conclusión, se sostiene que la Iglesia católica hace uso de una gramática moderna, muchas veces
compartida por grupos de izquierda en una batalla que también se libra en clave cultural. En
relación a esto, a diferencia de otras asociaciones, el Círculo Católico Obrero de Nogoyá parece
adquirir, por lo menos durante el periodo a analizar, cierto compromiso con la lucha de la clase
obrera.
This article analyzes the model of social Catholicism put into practice in the diocese of Paraná, particularly during the bishopric of Abel Bazán y Bustos (1910-1926). On one hand, the "social question" problem is addressed from some writings and initiatives of the bishop, both at the diocesan and parish levels. While on the other, an approach to the parish dynamics from the city of Nogoyá allows us to observe both the problems of the "social question" and the Catholicism’s actions from one of its organizations, the Workers' Circles. In conclusion, it is argued that the Catholic Church makes use of a modern grammar, often shared by left-wing groups in a battle that is also being fought culturally. In relation to this, unlike other associations, the Catholic Workers' Circle of Nogoyá seems to acquire, at least during the analyzed period, a certain commitment to the working-class struggle.
